JKTAN
M
Synthetic tanning agent with particularly good
dispersing effect |
Jktan – M
is mainly used for retanning chrome leathers. It caused
the vegetable tannins to go onto the leather more mildly
and more uniformly, so that the grain retains it full
elastically and can be more uniformly dyed.
Moreover, the product substantially accelerates
vegetable tannage and fives leathers of improved
smoothness and paleness. |

Jktan-M
is a fine, beige powder which dissolves readily in water
forming solutions of almost neutral reaction. The
product substantially accelerates the penetration of
vegetable tannins by reducing their tendency to form
large and highly astringent particles.
Jktan-M
improves the tanning effect of, say mimosa and quebracho
extracts, by bringing about a more rapid and more
uniform dispersion.
If
mimosa extract is used alone, however, it is advisable
to incorporate a synthetic replacement tanning agent
besides Jktan-M. |
Application |
: |
Jktan-M
is mainly used for retanning chrome leathers with
vegetable extracts to promote the neutralization process
and to achieve a more uniform and milder absorption as
well as a deeper penetration of the retanning agents.
Thus,
the grain layer is no longer overloaded and retains its
full elastically even if fairly astringent tanning
agents, e.g., mimosa or lightly sulfited quebracho
extracts are used.
Jktan-M
can also be used to advantage for neutralization. When
applied in conjunction with Neutrigan, Neutrigan P4 and
other commonly employed neutralizing agents, the product
mainly facilitates complete penetration that is often
difficult to achieve in dyeing fairly thick leathers. |
